ollama installation with the following models installed

7B model can be run on machines with 8GB of RAM

13B model can be run on machines with 16GB of RAM

Usage explaination

On Windows, Linux, and macOS, it will detect memory RAM size to first download required LLM models.

When memory RAM size is greater than or equal to 4GB, but less than 7GB, it will check if gemma:2b exist. The program implicitly pull the model.

ollama pull qwen:1.8b
ollama pull gemma:2b
ollama pull phi:2.7b
ollama pull phi3:3.8b

When memory RAM size is greater than 7GB, but less than 15GB, it will check if these models exist. The program implicitly pull these models

ollama pull phi3:3.8b
ollama pull qwen2:7b
ollama pull gemma2:9b
ollama pull mistral:7b
ollama pull llama3.1:8b
ollama pull llava:7b

When memory RAM siz is greater than 15GB, it will check if these models exist. The program implicitly pull these models

ollama pull phi3:3.8b
ollama pull qwen2:7b
ollama pull gemma2:9b
ollama pull mistral:7b
ollama pull llama3.1:8b
ollama pull llava:7b
ollama pull llava:13b
